As a Solution Architect on our global solution consulting team, you will sit at the intersection of enterprise translation strategy, localisation technology and complex deal execution.

• Get Inside the Customer's World:
  Engage confidently with localisation program managers, language operations leads, IT architects and procurement stakeholders; understand their content volumes, language pairs, TM system set‑up, LSP relationships and gaps in the current stack; translate that into a clear picture of where DeepL creates the most impact.
• Map the Workflow Transformation:
  Create before‑and‑after models of a customer's current manual‑heavy processes and fragmented localisation state compared to a DeepL‑centric future, demonstrating how processes are streamlined and efficiency gains are achieved.
• Lead Technical Validation:
  Design and run high‑impact POCs and architecture reviews that prove translation quality, integration feasibility and operational efficiency; speak authoritatively on security posture, compliance and governance to risk‑averse IT and procurement audiences.
• Shape the Practice and the Product:
  Establish and refine playbooks—discovery frameworks, architecture templates, ROI models and automation recipes—that elevate the broader GTM team; feed structured field insight back to Product and Engineering and turn customer challenges into roadmap influence.

• 7‑10+ years in Solution Architecture, Solution Consulting or Technical Pre‑Sales, ideally within language technology, localisation, enterprise SaaS or system integration.
• Strong familiarity with modern AI and localisation stacks, including MLP, CLI, Claude, TMS, MT API integration patterns, TM and Glossary workflows, CMS integrations and REST/webhook API architecture.
• Thought‑process of workflow transformation—ability to map complex enterprise content pipelines and make a case for change.
• Solid understanding of the LSP model.
• Security and compliance fluency; comfortable discussing data residency, security posture and governance with legal and IT audiences in regulated industries.
• Strong enterprise instincts and ability to navigate localisation managers, IT architects and C‑level buyers.
• Fluency in English mandatory; additional language proficiency (German, French, Spanish, Italian or Japanese) strongly preferred.

• Diverse, internationally distributed team of over 90 nationalities.
• Open communication, regular feedback and culture of empathy and growth mindset.
• Hybrid work and flexible hours; teams work in office twice a week.
• Virtual Shares: ownership mindset in every role.
